Unique Vibe, Great Cocktails & Food
My experience at this restaurant was wonderfully unique. The atmosphere felt like a blend of punk rock aesthetics with antique furniture and craft cocktails. The bar program was fab, offering well-thought-out, balanced, and interesting cocktails, along with a good selection of non-alcoholic options. The food was also actually really good, exceeding expectations without relying heavily on spice. It truly punches well above its weight.

Favorite spot for any occasion
This is absolutely my favorite place for a casual date, a drink with out-of-town friends, or just to space out alone. Every cocktail feels special, and the bar snacks are good. The atmosphere is appropriately dark with good music and eclectic decor and glassware. The barkeeps are salty and friendly, as a true SF bar should be. I love it here and highly recommend you go.

Incredible Food and Loungey Vibe

Cool Vibe, Unique Upscale Bar Food
If you're looking for a bar with a cool vibe, unique food and drinks, you should try this place. The staff was friendly and the drinks and food were really good. It's not typical bar food; it's more upscale. I went on a Friday around 5: 30 PM, and it was empty, but by the time I left at 9 PM, it was packed! Definitely worth a try.

Cool Vibe, Great Cocktails, Worth the Trip
Don't raise your eyebrows or give me the evil look, the evil eye hits its mark. I had a great experience at this restaurant. It has a cool vibe, attracting a wide range of customers from young to old. It's loungey and low key, but the cocktails are high class. The bartenders know their craft and make you feel at home. You can chill out or do some remote work, play some pool, or chat up a new face. I didn't try their food, but their drink selection was worth the trip. Next time I'll sample their food.

Eclectic Decor, Great Service, Unique Drinks
My experience at Evil Eye was fantastic! The service was great, even on a busy night, with staff who were always friendly and attentive. The decor is incredibly eclectic and cool, offering something fun to look at everywhere. It creates a laid-back, quirky vibe perfect for hanging out with friends or unwinding. The bar menu is creative and fun, and the drinks are as unique as the space itself.

Rude Bouncer Ruined Our Night
My experience at this restaurant was marred by the incredibly rude behavior of the bouncer. He falsely accused my friend of having a fake ID, which was valid, and then proceeded to belittle our group. He incorrectly stated my friend's eye color and height, making fun of us. To make matters worse, he then laughed about it with his coworkers. This was absolutely unprofessional and disgusting service. This incident occurred tonight, 6/13, and we will definitely not be returning.

Unique Cocktail Lounge with a Great Vibe
My experience at this cocktail lounge was fantastic. It's one of my favourite spots in the city, offering a unique atmosphere with a hint of tiki/occult themes that set it apart from other lounges. It's a great date spot, and the atmosphere was rated a perfect 5. The service also received a top score of 5. We experienced no wait time, and the noise level was quiet, making it easy to talk. The price per person was between $10–20.
